...Which language would you consider to be the most attractive sounding language? I've heard some say that Spanish is sexy, or the French have the most beautiful sounding words; what do you think? (This is a good chance for you multiligual people to loose your beliefs on what you've learned.)

Am not even bilingual. There is something about the English gentleman's smooth voice and French is very nice.

I studied around 20 different langauges, and generally I find the Slavonic languages most pleasing to the ear. Of the Slavonic languages I Slovak best, which is like a combination of all the best sides of all the Slavonic languages. The rich sounds of Russian combined with the clear sounds of the South Slavonic languages.
Other favourites are Finnish, Russian, Mandarin, Turkish, Yiddish, Persian, Italian and Latin (and my own language, Swedish ...). Of the languages you mention, maybe I find Spanish a bit too macho and staccato, and French a slight bit too vague to take the top position.
But actually, I love all languages! :)

I have been exposed to many languages in the past few months (German, Danish, English, Swedish, French, Italian and a few others) Swedish is the prettiest. Sounds like singing.

I think Parisian French sounds the nicest when spoken.

I think Italian is the most attractive sounding language. it expresses all emotions accurately. From love to anger.

The prettiest languages I've ever heard spoken were Latin and Gaelic.
